I simply adore Erik's architectural approach to photography. So pristine!

Also nice to have PeterN join us :)

What a pleasure to enjoy this get-together vicariously!  Lots of good photography as well.

Double impact damage.
,,, We got the APO Lanthar 125 back into infinity  ;) It works, but focus is a bit on the heavy side, ok for a macro lens.

A wake up call to treat these Lanthars for what they are; A fragile extinct species  :o
The two guides #60 was bend severely but got the back into original shape, guide bushings checked and threads massaged into shape again, the aluminum tubes used for this lens are so thin it's a wonder it works at all,,,

Bruno, Dr Lens Clique fixes everything. You break - he make!

Mobile phones are just fine, however, there is a long way to go reach a D750 + lens + post processing...
